The payment of a salary and the amount of salary are key here. Partners paid a wage i.e. salaried (subject to amount), almost certainly should be automatically enrolled. It’s conceivable, however, that equity partners entirely remunerated by drawings do not have “qualifying earnings”. You will need to assess case by case whether the earnings paid qualify by reference to the LLP’s remuneration arrangements in relation to the kinds of payments that count as earnings under the Act.
